Chapter 445

"You don't feel sorry at all? She used to be your beloved girlfriend." Pearl thought about Richard's past and felt upset.

"I think I should explain a few things to you," Richard said, looking serious.

Puzzled by his sudden seriousness, she asked, "What's going on? If it's about Jenny, I was just kidding earlier. I didn't-"

"First, when I was with Jenny, it wasn't a passionate love story like Hugo described. She wanted to chase her dreams, and we just had different life goals, so we broke up. Second, I stopped caring about her a long time ago after she left. I didn't really have strong feelings for her, so my obsession with work afterward had nothing to do with her.

"Third, I did have some lingering thoughts about her because I wanted to understand why she abruptly ended our relationship to pursue her dreams. Later, I found out she had a new boyfriend abroad, and he's a director who helped her become famous."

Pearl heard Richard say these words for the first time and was left stunned.

Afterward, Richard looked into Pearl's eyes and asked, "Do you have any more questions?"

"Does that mean.... you got cheated on?" Pearl's thinlding was quite unique, and even Richard was surprised.

He gritted his teeth. "Does that even matter?"

Pearl noticed a change in Richard's tone and couldn't help but laugh. "You know, the famous CEO, Mister Richard, got cheated on. That's some juicy gossip."

Richard's expression instantly soured.

"Alright, I won't tease you anymore." Pearl looked at Richard's serious expression and smiled, shaking her head. "By the way, I talked to Este today, and she mentioned that her production hasn't been filming for a few days. Mainly because they couldn't find a suitable replacement after the poisoning incident. They've been struggling to find the right person."

"Don't you have any actresses at your company? You could have a few of them audition." If he remembered correctly, it was just a supporting role, not that important..

Pearl looked at him and sighed. "It's just unfortunate. All the actresses fit for the role are booked now, and I can't find the right one."

Richard thought for a moment and then focused on Pearl. "Why don't you step in?"

"Me?" Pearl stared at Richard, her smile fading. "I don't think I'm cut out for acting, and honestly, I have no passion for it. Besides, I can't stand the environment there." Yup, she was just lazy.

"Not cut out for acting? Pearl, do you remember how popular that scene you did in "The Melody of the West' was? If you're not suited for acting, I can't find anyone else in the entertainment industry who is." Pearl scratched her head. "That was just to compete with Jenny. In fact, I can't act."

"We'll see. I believe you're a great fit. Plus, your last scene left a strong impression on so many people. It could also give the production a nice popularity boost."

True to his business acumen, every word he spoke was tied to profit.

Pearl had no choice. "Fine, I'll do it."
